The US , Canada, Europe, Israel, India, Japan, South Korea should unite against the China and demand China do these things or all of them together will put trade restrictions on them(while they increase trade with each other)


- End all support to North Korea Immediately

- Stop their expansionist foreign policy in the Pacific

- Stop stealing intellectual property


China is a threat and should be dealt like one,

Instead, your Dumb Leader (and apparent Russian muppet) is starting trade wars with Canada and Europe.

China is going to run out of things to Tariff.

That not really an issue.
If for example trump adds a 20% tariff on $200 billion worth of products, China can equal that by charging (for example) a 100% tariff on $40 billion worth of products.
It equates to the same thing.

There is now talk from the Idiot-In-Chief that if China retaliates to trump's 2nd threat of $200 billion of tariffs, that the Orange Clown will enact a 3rd wave of tariffs.

When does it end? What is this moron doing?

I wouldn’t mind this if Trump didn’t alienate our other trade partners as I believe China is a major threat to our nation and that threat must be dealt with

Yes, true WTO litigation which we generally win. Not by shooting ourselves in the foot, reloading The Gun, and shooting ourselves in the other foot which has been Trump's practice with China, and frankly almost everything else, thus far.

Just today, during a press conference with Poland's President Andrzej Duda, trump said that the US has been ripped off by everyone, including the European Union.
And then looking over to the Polish President, pointing that his country is in the EU.
This is totally embarrassing.

Watch video of this, here: https://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2018/09/18/trump-presser-eu-ripping-united-states-off-nr-sot-vpx.cnn

The US never should have let China in to the WTO

Um, it's the WTO not the u s t o. The rationale for keeping the second-largest economy out where they can be monitored and litigated against is question at best.

WTO should not include countries like China and the fact is if they werent in the WTO there economy wouldnt have grown near as fast as it did and the US wouldnt be as dependent on China for Trade.Also in 2000 they were not the 2nd biggest economy in the world, in fact they were number 6.

China should not get any of the privileges the US and their allies get on trade as the fact is they are hackers, thieves of intellectual property, and others.

China's membership in the WTO is a drop in the bucket at best regarding the growth of its economy, the decline of the US economy, and again, gives a format for prosecuting trade violations and other intellectual property theft that we would otherwise lack. It's hardly a perfect situation, but certainly worthwhile.

If China wasn’t in the WTO we may not have traded with them as much as we do now or we may have had agreed to a bilateral trade agreement with them(for countries like China bilateral work better then multi lateral)

I was reading that Jo-Ann Fabrics was lobbying against the tariffs and asking its customers to contact the White House, which must mean that Hobby Lobby will be hit badly by them, too.

Hobby Lobby may very well encapsulate the average Republican voter if they don't. They would be legitimately harmed by one of Trump's policies yet put up with him because he is their best chance to accomplish the other reactionary policies that they covet.

Rant about the evils of socialism and big government while cashing the checks Trump sends them from the public coffers.
